[Xen-devel] Using NX bit in Xen 3.1

[최종욱 <whiteugi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there~

 

I’m new in Xen hypervisor(3.1 Ver) and I need a help to succeed some work.

 

The source code about memory management and shadow page table is very confused.

 

To catch a page of executing code in Xen hypervisor, I want to use NX bit of shadow page table.

 

So, I need some hints to do it.

 

First, how can I use the nx bit in xen environment. Can I install 64bit-support OS on a virtual machine or enable the nx bit in xen configuration?

My setup is xen(3.1 ver), dom0(debian/kernel 2.6.26), guest VM(linux kernel 2.6.26), and CPU support VT-X.

 

Second, how can I set the nx bit in every page of all executables in guest VM.

 

Third, how can I detect the nx bit page fault? I think it’s done by add some code at sh_page_fault().
